No period because of birth control?

OK correct any facts that is wrong to begin with.I have a merina IUD and love it.I haven't had a period in over 5 years(had second one put in).My question is this if we are born with all the eggs we ever have then what happens to them if you go on birth control and don't have a peroid to release on every month.Is it going to delay the ';change of life'; or will more the one egg release at a time when I do go off and start getting a period.I would love to hear from someone in the medicial feild that has correct answers but hearsay or your thoughts are welcome.No period because of birth control?
OK lets start with understand the IUD and then maybe it will give you a better understanding:





IUD prevents fertilization by damaging or killing sperm and making the mucus in the cervix thick and sticky, so sperm can't get through to the uterus. It also keeps the lining of the uterus (endometrium) from growing very thick. This makes the lining a poor place for a fertilized egg to implant and grow. So, you technically still release an egg with an IUD, just because you don't have a period doesn't necessarily mean your not releasing an egg. No it will not delay the change of life. It's possible at any given time when your not on birth control to release more than one egg, and this is normal and it happens from time to time.





I hope this gives you a better understanding of how the IUD works and what it does when your using the IUD. If you have any further questions please feel free to email me.No period because of birth control?
An IUD is to prevent implantation of a fertilized egg. If there is no hormone component to it, you are probably still dropping eggs, they're just not able to implant. If you are not dropping eggs, the body reabsorbs them. Bleeding patterns are not necessarily related to ovulation.
I don't think that using hormonal birth control will delay menopause.





Your ovaries are sort of dormant when you use birth control. Nothing happens to your eggs when you are on birth control. Since one does not mature and get released into your fallopian tube each month, they just stay in your ovaries. If and when you quit using hormonal birth control, your ovaries will have to start producing the hormones that were previously provided by your birth control and you will start to release eggs again.





Also, having your period does not cause ovulation, it is actually the other way around: When an egg is release and not fertilized, your body realizes this and sheds the unneeded uterine lining.
